right now it's probably now very cost friendly for most people. In the future though, I can imagine city dwelling people, maybe someone in New York/L.A. etc, just outright boarding up all the windows. Replace them with an array of LCD's that have a live or recorded image of the beautiful countryside, or mountainous range of colorado.... moving from dusk to dawn, to give the sense of realtime scenery.
I couldn't think of a better escape from the urban nightmare that I live in right now. If it were affordable, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

A petition ? okay guys.
this little experiment called mankind is now over, it has failed miserably. See you in the afterlife.
been a while since I tried musicmatch
on
Yahoo! Buys Musicmatch
·
· Score: 3, Interesting
but the last time I did, it just skipped over all 37,000 of my music files because it didn't support.ogg. Any change since then or is it still crippleware ?
at least in the presidential election. If you truly want to make changes in the american system of politics, third party candidates need to win on a state by state level... not in the federal elections. This will achieve nothing.
Of course, nothing much is gained in american politics by third party candidates because winner-takes-all, thus you have 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th parties just stealing votes from the primary (most electable) parties.....
Third, Fourth, Fifth, etc parties make sense but not in america... They are truly fucked. Sure there are a few "independent" candidates out there but thats truly the exception.
Do I have a question ? Ya, When will you be withdrawing your candidacy from this race ? That's the only question that's of any importance. One that Ralph Nader will never acknowledge, will you ?
well it doesn't surprise me that you wouldn't have the slighest clue the contributions other nations made during WW2. The only things that you're aware of are american and told repeatadly by Hollywood movies. It's obvious you haven't read very many books, but I dont blame you for being a television addict, you are of course an American.
The bravest men and women during world war 2 were the Canadians, Brits, Australians and Russians.. completely underappreciated by your Hollywood gods. But of course, you would never accept the Russian element as a factor in defeating the Nazi regime, because, after all you're just a stupid american.
No sour grapes here, I'm in Canada. Hope I dont need to remind you that we were fighting in Europe _3_ years before you arrogant fuckheads showed up. Americans like to take credit for destroying the whole nazi regime singlehandedly, but thats far from the truth.
The RAF had already destroyed the luftwaffe before the americans had the balls to show up in europe and 73% of the nazi casualties were inflicted the Russians.
In good american spirit though, you guys claimed to have saved the day.... Hey, I dont blame you... it's better to have hollywood paint you chickenshits as Hero's that saved the universe than the reality.
See, slashdot.org is very us-centric. Therefore most of the responses will be somewhere between "let the free market decide" and "the freemarket is the only way to go."
Thats nice, except when the free market fails them and the government has to bail-out billion dollar auto companies like Chrysler or a handful of airlines, costing the tax payer hundreds of billions of dollars.
Americans pride themselves on the capitalist freemarket economy they've built. Everything is about Entrepreneurship and Less taxation for the common business man. It's funny they dont recognize that the $400,000,000,000 spent every year on their gigantic military machine is basically a giant social welfare program, plus another 25% of the annual $2 trillion u.s. federal budget going to social programs (which people often mistake for good capitalist ventures.)
Americans live in Denial. They hate socialism, elect absolutely clueless people like George Bush and then talk about their all powerful capitalist economy.. whatever.
than spread FUD. They're losing the CPU battle with AMD and they know it. So they try to scare people about the imminent death of the internet so they're solution products start selling... I say fuck them. I haven't been satisfied with an Intel product since the pentium 200 mmx... One can only hope they bankrupt themselves on their gargantuan inadequacy. Fuck them.
How can I buy a transmeta chip and build a system from one ? I checked pricewatch but they dont list transmeta chips... and what sort of motherboard do they clip onto ? It seems to me, at least, they're cool factor (linus a former hacker) is very high but in reality it's very ambigious when it comes to the real world.
Love to put to get a mythtv box with a transmeta chip at its heart but I guess that's not possible so far:(:(:(
Well, the only two that are worth mentioning are GNUnet and Entropy. GNUnet has it's advantages but lacks the concept of "homepages," aka. Freesites (freenet's version of a webpage.) This is a real drawback when it comes to attracting newbies. Entropy on the other hand has the advantage of being written in C (or ++) and having a http proxy/interpreter... but development is slow and the userbase is very very small.
In the end, when it comes to security, freenet is probably the most secure, it has the largest userbase but it's flakey as hell.. Ever since March 31st/April 1st of 2003, it's just been downhill.
Just insert a bunch of data into the network.. record the keys and retrieve once a week then delete. That should keep the data retrievable from the network for a good while. Using two nodes would help. Plus everything is encrypted with some heavy shit.
Or, just make a local-freenet on the company lan.. everything is encrypted and unretrievable without the proper keys, so it's very secure and it's distributed.. + FEC encoding.
That assumes freenet works, AFAIK it's still fucking broken. Ian Clarke is playing too much politics with the project and the only coder that really understands freenet (Mathew Toseland) is swamped with ideas, day after day.. it just gets worse and worse... The donations seemed like a good idea, but after watching the DEV list for the last 18 months, I realize it's a failed project:(
this happened when I bought a computer owned by a smoker. I could smell the smoke/nicotine or whatever it was the first day I had it in the house. I used a mixture of sulfur + salt + tabasco sauce + lighter fluid. Apply it with a lint free cloth, rub gently... works nice even on the motherboards. Give it a shot and see what happens.
one of my major gripes with the three movies were the accents and sounds. For me at least, it was extremely difficult to hear what they were saying. The accents were heavy and the volume level kept jumping from high to low. From one scene to the next I had to keep moving the volume down (during the loud scenes) and then WAY WAY up when they were speaking, just so i could hear their faint voices. Anybody else find themselves doing the same thing ?
Ya, I should get a volume normalizer but in the meantime.....
You do if you buy Intel products. If I'm not mistaken, Intel is an Israeli company with some of their biggest fabs operating in disputed territories. Every chip they sell means one more helpless palestinian will suffer or be killed because of your support for Intel.. You are to blame.
Anyways, I guess this is Intel's way of getting out of the cpu market. AMD seems to have the upperhand as of late, with better chips, better technology, cooler tech (literally:) and integrated wazoo's up their butts..
I like to voice chat on yahoo's chat servers, it seems the only options for people anymore are using DHTML or Yahoo Messenger. Although the option for java chat is still available, hardly anybody uses it anymore because it requires an old build of the JVM (which cant be found anywhere except on kazaa..,) then a bunch of switches in Internet Explorer options need to be flipped.... It was difficult for me, I'd hate to see the average joe try that under 4 hours.
Java is dead in windows, Billy Boy Gates made sure of that.. this is just one example.
Offtopic ? whatever... that was a pretty good joke, sorry to the angry little moderator that didn't get it.. *hint* think of Jodie Foster & The Machine in Contact... sheesh
Just checking out the Sin City link you provided... someone named "Jessica Alba" starring in it. The name sounds familiar, has she done any nude scenes ? (google images doesn't turn up much except a handfull of obvious fakes..) Here's a bunch of good shots of her I thought I'd share...
teh editors are pro-kerry/pro-terrorist and hate america, bunch of ultra liberal socialists. They're only goal in life is to bring down america and capitalism ! No Wonder they endorse the idea of stealing intellectual property... god damn communists.
I'm done with this thread, turning the radio back on so I can listen to the Doctor of Democracy, Rush Limbaugh. Bye.
I dont know the answer to this but I would guess it's because sodomy is illegal in many states yet... and money shots, might be illegal as well, classified under the same type of obscenity laws. *shrug*.
I'm not living in the u.s. though, their rules and laws I know not, very well. Can hard-core porn broadcast over cable ?
This will probably help speed things up on the ogg-streams-over-dns p2p radio stations. Some complain that DNS wasn't designed for these purposes but generally, the same people complaining are the ones raising kids now, using viagra and getting ready to wear diapers again.
Technology adapts to changing circumstances and trends, old folks do not.
I used to think he was an evil genius but after seeing Mr. Moore's film, it's a sure thing Dubya is just stupid & evil. The man has the mental capacity of a teenager and has the power to launch nuclear weapons... there's something about this situation that irks me, anybody else with me on this ?
My question is, what sort of safeguards are in place that would prevent Mr. Chimp from giving the go-ahead to start a nuclear holocaust ? A doctor ? Congressional approval ? A yes vote from a majority of his cabinet ?!
